#225 - Chapter 225: Peak Progress

Cheng Feng wasn't idle either, seizing this opportunity. He also started practicing the Bronze Statue Skill. As long as he could endure the initial pain, following the secret manual's instructions step by step, a skill icon would quickly form on the panel.

This made Cheng Feng feel like he had discovered a new continent. Perhaps, this was the panel's new usage.

Skills like cultivation methods and techniques required aptitude, but these physical cultivation methods generally started with tempering. As long as there were enough resources and one could endure hardship, no aptitude was required. And Cheng Feng's panel needed just that.

As long as the skill formed, Cheng Feng could later add points to reach its peak.

In the two months that followed, Cheng Feng worked even harder in the Cheng Manor.

He added points to Mountain Shattering Fist and Chaotic Sky Steps, bringing them all to the Master level.

He also officially started learning the Bronze Statue Skill.

With his knife skills, fist techniques, and footwork all reaching the Master level, and his physical cultivation also starting, Cheng Feng could finally relax and rest.

After making gains, Cheng Feng naturally wanted to relax his mind.

During this time, through Cheng Feng's continuous efforts, Eldest Sister Zhao Wei, his primary wife, was finally pregnant.

Afterward, Cheng Feng also took the four great maids, Chunyu, Xiahe, Qiuyue, and Dongmei, into his room.

Chunyu and Xiahe were the earliest in the Cheng Manor and were already Cheng Feng's designated women.

Qiuyue had a good background and was even more pleasing to Cheng Feng.

Dongmei was a delicate and innocent girl.

Cheng Feng naturally wouldn't let go of the pastries he had prepared for himself.

And soon, the doctor said that Zheng Ya and Xiaoqing would give birth this month or early next month.

Cheng Feng had never forgotten the benefits of the lucky bags and was always paying attention to the women.

Watching the people in the Physical Cultivation Hall still working hard, Cheng Feng couldn't help but nod. Life was getting more and more promising.

In the evening, returning to the Cheng Manor, Cheng Feng looked at the two women who were about to give birth, gently chatting about trivial matters.

The two women knew that their man was quite busy.

They didn't expect Cheng Feng to take the time to accompany them, and they were even more moved.

"Ah!" Xiaoqing suddenly felt uncomfortable in her stomach.

Cheng Feng immediately walked to Xiaoqing's side and anxiously said, "What's wrong? It can't be that it's coming out, right?"

Xiaoqing's face was pale with pain: "Master, it hurts..."

Cheng Feng also panicked and hurriedly told the servants to find the doctor and midwife.

They were all old acquaintances and had been arranged for a long time.

The house was in a flurry, although a little chaotic, at least everything had been prepared.

"Oh dear, the contractions are getting more frequent." Xiaoqing bit her lower lip tightly, fine beads of sweat seeping from her forehead, her face even paler than before. Seeing this, Cheng Feng felt sorry for her. He gently held Xiaoqing's hand, trying to give her some comfort with his warmth.

"Don't be afraid, Xiaoqing, I'm right here by your side. The doctor and midwife will be here soon, everything will be fine." Although Cheng Feng's voice was a little anxious, he tried to remain calm, hoping to bring Xiaoqing a sense of peace.

The servants shuttled between the courtyards, their footsteps hurried but orderly. Buckets of hot water were carried into the delivery room one after another, and clean cloths and necessary herbs were prepared. The air was filled with a tense and expectant atmosphere, and everyone silently prayed for the birth of this life.

Finally, hurried footsteps came from outside the door, and the doctor and midwife arrived almost at the same time. They quickly checked Xiaoqing's condition, their faces showing professional judgment and determination.

"Madam, don't worry, the fetal position is correct. Just keep breathing and listen to my instructions, and you will see your child soon." The midwife's voice was gentle and powerful, like a shot in the arm, slightly calming Xiaoqing's nervous mood.

Cheng Feng stood aside, his eyes full of concern and love for Xiaoqing. Although he couldn't bear the pain for Xiaoqing, he silently supported her in his own way—sometimes wiping the sweat from her forehead, and sometimes adjusting her position so that she could be a little more comfortable.

After transferring Xiaoqing into the delivery room, as time passed, the sound of Xiaoqing's suppressed breathing, mingled with the sound of the wind and the soft footsteps of the servants outside, came from the delivery room.

In a crisp cry, a new life came into this world.

"Congratulations, Master, it's a healthy young master!" The midwife held the swaddled baby with a happy face and reported the good news to Cheng Feng.

Hearing this, Cheng Feng's face lit up with joy. He excitedly reached out and took the child, looking at the tender little face, a surge of unspeakable excitement surging in his heart.

"Xiaoqing, you've worked hard." Cheng Feng turned to look at Xiaoqing, who was weak but had a gentle face on the delivery bed, his voice full of gratitude and love. Xiaoqing smiled slightly, her eyes shining with maternal glory, as if all the pain had turned into sweetness at this moment.

Outside the house, the bright moon in the night sky shone through the clouds, casting a clear and soft light, as if also celebrating the arrival of this new life.

After settling things at home, Cheng Feng hurried to the Hong Mansion, if he didn't open this lucky bag tonight, he probably wouldn't be able to sleep!

With Cheng Feng running at full speed using his blood energy, Cheng Feng quickly arrived at the Hong Mansion.

Opening the door, entering, and closing the door were all done in one go.

Cheng Feng stared straight at the lucky bag icon on the panel.

The lucky bag, growing from small to large, occupied the entire panel. A card was placed in Cheng Feng's hand.

Cheng Feng looked at the picture on the card in his hand, it was a tall, handsome man with a high nose, refined and heroic, wearing a turban on his head, and a flowing white hair paired with a gorgeous black dress, truly a cool handsome guy.

"Is it him?" Cheng Feng looked at this familiar figure and was immediately a little excited.

Always chasing after his senior brother, the evil and righteous swordsman, who else could it be?

The domineering ultimate move -- Sweeping Across All Directions -- was also Cheng Feng's dream!

It's not that Cheng Feng likes villains, but that villains are really handsome!
